Liu Yiche · Bianji xuebao · 2015
The structural and length characteristics of abstract in the scientific paper of 20 th domestic and foreign agricultural journals are investigated. Our survey shows the abstract of foreign agricultural journals are usually reportorial,and most of domestic agricultural journals also adopt it. Structured abstract is used in two kinds of domestic agricultural journals. A brief abstract is always used in domestic and foreign agricultural journals, but a long English abstract is used in three kinds of domestic journal. We suggest that the structural and length characteristics of abstract in the scientific paper was accorded with the content of article,and a scientific paper in domestic agricultural journals should need a brief Chinese abstract and a long English abstract.
